Excellent experience and very good service from the staff. The experience and treatment from the instructor Polo was excellent and of great help for future dives.

The certification is very cool! The staff was very kind and helped us at all times, honorable mention to Lis and Polo who were 💯

Friendly professionals that help the beginner feel comfortable and give the old timer a refresher. Jesus was excellent in instruction of materials and execution of the dive plan. Safety was a very high priority. Highly recommend, whether you're a novice or just need a refresher.
We're so happy to hear you had such a positive experience! We're glad you felt supported throughout the entire process and enjoyed a safe and memorable dive. Thank you for your recommendation—it means a lot to our entire team. Until your next adventure!
Karla and Jimmy were awesome! They were very knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. We got to see incredible marine life such as pufferfish, sting rays, lobsters, angel fish, and even a shark! Karla was very patient with our son, who was hesitant to scuba dive, and she was very helpful and responsive with my husband when he had a minor incident. We would highly recommend this tour!
Thank you for sharing such a wonderful review! We're delighted to hear you enjoyed a safe, fun, and unforgettable underwater experience. Creating special memories for the whole family is always our greatest reward. Until the next adventure!
This was a great first experience Scuba Diving! The crew made us feel very comfortable with it being our first time. We got to see lots of fish :)
We're so happy to hear you enjoyed your first scuba adventure! We love helping beginners discover the underwater world in a fun, safe, and relaxed way. Thank you for trusting us, and we hope to welcome you back again soon!
Jesus, Polo and Eduardo were amazing. They took my family of 6 out for the beginner dive. Three of us had been diving or were certified and three not at all. They catered to us all. Jesus was the best with all levels and Polo stuck with me who knew nothing! Seriously a great time.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We're happy to hear your whole family was able to enjoy the adventure, no matter their diving experience level. We love creating safe, fun, and personalized experiences for everyone. We hope to see you again very soon!
We booked with Manta for the discover scuba tour with a second dive. Our instructor Kosta was great, very knowledgeable and funny. After an equipment issue and a brief class we got the boat. My wife, son, and I were the only people on the class. When we got on the boat we were joined by another instructor, Chui, and Captain Flash. Turns out scuba is harder than I thought but our son took eight to it. My wife and I took a little longer but Kosta got us under the water in no time. The second dive site had a ton of sea life and well worth it. It was the highlight of our trip and I will book with Manta again.
We're so happy to hear you had such a memorable family experience! We're glad you enjoyed the dives and all the marine life so much. Thank you for trusting us and for letting us be part of such a special moment. We hope to welcome you back again soon!
Costas, our guide, gave clear and easy to understand instructions. We went at a pace we were comfortable with. Amazing close up look at various fish. Might be a little challenging if you have trouble with ears/sinuses equalizing pressure. Otherwise, Highly Recommend!
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We're happy to hear you enjoyed your first experience and felt comfortable throughout the process. We love helping everyone enjoy the ocean at their own pace. We hope to see you again soon!
